Lupe Fiasco’s “Lasers” Tops Billboard Chart!!!

As predicted, Lupe Fiasco‘s “Lasers” album arrives atop the Billboard 200 chart, selling 204,000 in its first week according to Nielsen SoundScan.

It marks his first No. 1 and best sales week yet. His second effort, “The Cool,” launched at No. 15 with 143,000 at the tail end of 2007, while his “Food & Liquor” debut bowed at No. 8 with 81,000 in 2006.

Adele‘s “21” slides from the top slot down to No. 2 with 133,000 — down a modest 21%. Right behind her at No. 3 is the debut of the fifth volume of the “Glee” TV soundtrack series, starting with 90,000. All nine of the “Glee”-related releases have debuted in the top 10: the five regular full-length albums along with three EP sets and a Christmas effort.
